For beginning students who are children, I typically start with Faber collection (Piano basic adventures) or Hal Leonard's Essential Elements. Once the student has progressed to have a grasp of the fundamentals, I will begin to introduce solo repertoire appropriate for their first recital performance. For adults, I try to find out what the student is interested in, and guide my instruction accordingly to keep the lessons engaging and fun, no matter their ability level. Read More

I believe the secret to improvement is playing everyday, even if it is just for 5-10 minutes. As far as studying a improvisation, listening to music is another secret that can not be overestimated. Passion for playing music must stem from a passion of listening and enjoying music. I have various lesson plans to get peoples facility on their instrument to the level of playing what they 'hear in their head'. Read More

I always supplemented my income with teaching. When I got to Florida I started teaching in people's homes and built up 67 students. I played six nights a week and played in church's three days a week. I needed a vacation. We moved to the Adirondacks in upstate New York and went fishing for ten years, I did some teaching and playing there but not as much. Here I am in Florida again. Read More

I tend to be very patient with students and understand that if they are not enjoying the lesson they will not learn or practice as much as they should. I try to get my students playing music quickly, once they are playing and not just practicing it becomes fun. I use small duo pieces that allows the student to learn a very simple melody then play along with me. This become quite enjoyable in a very short amount of time. Read More
Instruments: Piano Violin Viola
I'm always looking for new methods of teaching in order to encourage a rapid and continued development of music skills. My goal is to make the students to play their first song right from the first lesson. First I teach them how to play the instrument and then the music theory. Yes you read well, first the kids start playing, and once they are happy and encourage you introduce the theory and technic studies. Read More

While studying at the Conductor’s Institute in 1993, I had master classes with Donald Portnoy, Samuel Jones, Larry Newland, and Paul Vermal. I also studied with David Effron and Yuri Bekker at the Miami Music festival I am an active cellist and composer and has had works performed by the Colorado Symphony and in Romania. MY composition, “Theme and Variations for Orchestra” was performed by the South Florida Youth Orchestra in January of 2003, and “In Memoriam” was given its world primer at the University of Miami in 2007.

I customize each lesson specifically for my students so that they remain satisfied and fulfilled with what they are learning.Each student has different interests and its my job to build a music curriculum around them. I usually encourage my students to have both a method book for fundamental skills, and a performance book with pieces that they want to learn. We will decide this after the first introductory lesson.

What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
There are certain steps to take in order to practice more effectively. First, practice the music by measure, and cut the measure in half if you need to. The more you cut those difficult passages of music into smaller pieces the easier it would be to learn. Think, bite-size mini measures. (This also cuts practicing time up to 50 % so practice smarter not harder! Practicing slow = faster learning. If something is getting frustrating just stop and go to something else. It's better to practice another piece of music than to stop practicing all together!
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
You know your child is ready to start lessons if they bug you about it, you buy them the instrument, they start taking lessons and you don't have to bother them about practice! When a student doesn't give you a hard time about practice, you know they are ready to make the commitment to practice and learn their instrument. When they sit at the piano without you telling them to you know they have a passion for learning. And for younger kids such as toddlers and children ages 4- 6; when you see they look forward to lessons every week, they are ready to make the commitment to taking lessons.
When will I start to see results?
That's a really good question. The answer really depends on how much you put into this. Like anything in life, the more you commit, the more you get out of it. I've seen students take years and years to learn an instrument and I've seen students learn how to play the piano in two- five years. I've also seen students start playing a song in the first lesson! And then I have students come back to class with a lesson that hasn't been learned. This all depends on you. Practicing every week, coming to class prepared, being on top of your child's practice routine, all of these things are important.
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
Yes, I had a teacher that inspired me. Honestly, it was my piano teacher. Before I took piano, my older sister did. Every time I accompanied my sister to her piano classes, I used to love hearing her teacher play. It wasn't long until my mom asked her if I can play also and, I soon started taking piano lessons. I used to love coming to piano class, and going to recitals every year. I also liked taking my piano exams at the end of the year because that's when I got my trophies and certificate. I still have them, now they're in my piano studio!
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
I chose the piano because, If you can play the piano you can pretty much learn any instrument you want. The piano is the foundation of all of the instruments. Theory wise, you can also understand theory concepts much faster because you can literally see the theory concepts right in front of you. And of course, I love the sound. Another fun fact, it makes it really easy to write music too. When I'm not teaching I like to write music in the studio. What I also like about the piano is that you can also solo. You really don't need anyone else to play the melody or the harmony, the piano can do both!
